(HQ) Mickey Rourke on Final Jonathan Ross Show

please resubscribe etc. (Chan & Beckham in video responses). July 16th, 2010.

[@ColJochen]

I wish more people would be more like Mickey. Utterly sincere, genuine, grounded. He is so unlike many other actors who believe in thier own hype.

[@classicartfoundation639]

I agree, I can't stomach chat shows for that very reason

[@AnnaLVajda]

He is not always grounded but he is sincere and he is tough and seems like fun. He goes against the grain is all.

[@markrutter2486]

Spot on x

[@Coreageous]

I love this guy! He stays thankful and deeply grateful to those that helped him when he was "down and out". He's never afraid to be vulnernable. Gotta love that:)

[@MrMiD.Life.Crisis]

Core Lore Amen to that! So many people take help for granted and others forget/willfully ignore those who helped them become famous or successful. I love him sharing his story about going from 'down and out' to successful actor - it is such an inspiring story, hopefully others that may be 'stuck in a rut' (down-and-out), can hear this story and believe in themselves, so they find success to. -i don't just mean in terms of being an actor, or even career as a whole. *Every* human being is special and we all have tough times - tough times with family, love, friends, illness, career, money, crime, etc. but anyone and everyone who goes through hardship can (and WILL) overcome their problems! We can overcome anything we put our minds to. This is not anything to do with religion, although i do understand why people seek comfort from religion in times of need, this is purely about the human will/heart. Don't take yourselves for granted, we are amazing creatures capable of so much. If you're not happy with your life then you owe it to yourself to make a change, remember with enough hard work, dedication and determination you can do more than you would ever believe. Take care, and love yourself - we're all here for a reason, just make it a good one :)

[@xtraflo]

He was a pretentious Asshole that got him in the situation he was in. Only after he lost everything he got humble.

[@pamchapman9909]

Mickey seems so relaxed here with Ross. Best MR interview I’ve see. God Bless him. I wish him much success & a very happy life. ❤️😊✌️

[@Toywithme200]

I love mickey. He genuine and sincere. And he's kind to animals! That makes him a great guy in my book.

[@ChloeDust]

Always like listening to Mickey, he seems genuine and intelligent.

[@Greggorious123]

He's a hard man who's not afraid of his sensitive side.

[@lukascoula2530]

[@vitamongelli8456]

[@diegobriseno7395]

Agreed!

[@pookie69abletoluvu]

He sees right through the "HOLLYWOOD" bullshit! He's so real and genuine....Has always been my hero xo

[@kilburnicus]

An awesome human being. A legend. An inspiration. Total honesty. I've always been a fan. Rumblefish and Barfly. The pinnacle of excellence. Pure genius. Unlike the,vain freaks,having a go at him on here. Nobody's. It just gives me joy,to know these freaks,will be paying a visit to the crematorium,very shortly,just like the rest of us,but nobody will remember them. Because,they are nobody's. Unlike Mickey. He wil be remembered. A legend.

[@danos1011]

kilburnicus super intelligent as well and wiser for what he's been through.

[@leehollebon7776]

kilburnicus totally agree I love the guy he seems very sincere & very genuine he's had highs & lows but just proves even a Hollywood star who hits rocks bottom can come bk to the top I admire mickey he is a legend 👍

[@Malouco]

kilburnicus He is a delusional liar.

[@A-FrameWedge]

I like Mickey Rourke but will never respect him until he comes clean on his fake boxing career.

[@redfield1007]

Cringe.

[@lynnlawson4471]

Every time I watch these interviews, I am overcome with Mickey love.

[@peterlafayette5595]

The guy is great. Smart , humble , great actor,

[@user-wh9nz6lj5f]

The most truthful, honest and without a crown on his head. Real man.Great actor. (from Russia with respect)

[@kosanstanojevic]

Mickey is the best,sincere heart, too good for Hollywood

[@stargazer7668]

Man Sylvester is a really good friend to have,..❤️❤️❤️

[@mmar710]

always loved this guy, from the very beginning! he is very smart, intelligent,most important honest and down to earth. it just breaks my heart Everytime I see him coz I can tell that he's been thru a lot and is broken to some level!!! whatever that maybe! he had mentioned in another interview he did not have a very good childhood!!

[@joanofarcxxi]

Hey Mickey you're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey! Let me tell you something: sexiness has no age. It does not depend on how you look. It is a magnetism from within. But this man is not only sexy, he is profound, sincere, experienced, self assured, and a great great actor. And that is what really matters.

[@user-iu1jf4hp7g]

Thank you 👏❣️

[@denisehall4818]

'The Wrestler' was a wonderful movie.

[@SoulStylistJukeBox]

Love this guy. Rent Barfly or Rumble Fish if you're too young to remember how great he once was.

[@danos1011]

SoulStylistJukeBox he still is a great actor. he just took a different direction and style

[@seanodwyer8691]

+Vader Brecker Fok with Irish in them like O'Rourke, are Great actors

[@casivaiaulibka6951]

Микки Рурк прекрасный человек, актер очень необычный, какая то нежность в улыбке, в глазах и вместе с этим мужественность настоящая железная. Мир воспринимает просто, знает ему цену. Не болен болезнью звезд, он просто светит своим человеческим светом. Благодарен, честен и он настоящий, ошибающийся и исправляющий сам свои ошибки. Восхищаюсь и люблю в нем свободу. Все роли его люблю. выяснилось, что многие его рабо ы не смотрела. Буду смотреть! Удачи Микки Рурк, всего самого доброго!

[@jiffyjim4038]

I love Mick..year of the dragon and barfly....epic.

[@theirishshowman]

The Pope of Greenwich Village, my all time favourite movie.

his scene and speech he gives in the expendables is my favourite part of the film, been a fan of him for years, glad he had his come back, should have got his oscar

[@mandymarshall9220]

He dresses beautifully, a real dude! He is someone i would love to meet, very funny and full of advise, he's made the mistakes but we will always love him because he's so real and honest.

[@sashas.5718]

[@michaelotoole1659]

Mickey just grew up and now he's dealing with it

[@doberman1ism]

Great to have you back Mickey!

[@TheInvisibleOne1026]

May wanna look at him now, not this show that was shot over 6 years ago. Just saying.

[@dianephillips8879]

I have always liked Mickey Rourke. He's real, down to earth and genuine. He also works hard staying fit. Praying God gives him lots of acting roles in the evening of his life.

[@derekbodenshot510]

LIVING LEGEND!

[@craigconley1872]

Best Mickey interview....My fav actor!!

[@chevyman288]

[@hulio932]

i have to give respect to him because hes still an awesome actor

[@darrenallison1422]

Love this man legend 👏and he makes me smile ...... always

[@kawikahokulani]

For a 1-day acting job, Mickey Rourke delivered a hell of a performance, in 1-take, that totally put the soul into the movie, The Expendables.

[@steffischolz7003]

i really like him. he seems so friendly and intelligent. but what hurts me is that im always sad when seeing him because you can see that he is broken in some way, i just want to hug him and tell him that everything is going to be alright....

[@TheChugg11]

Know what you mean: there's a really good documentary about him and he did get (a bit) emotional when talking about his father. He came across as a lovely, fucked-up man...

[@mmar710]

Steffi Scholz you and I both!!!

[@nebojsa1976]

But what about me Steffi?? What about me buaaaaaaaa?? I need your hug as well. Please hug me Steffi. Pleaaaasseee

[@Stereostupid]

Broken?everyone is broken and suffering something he’s honest and that’s amazing because being emotionally in tune and able to let it happen is truth

[@jessicarussell7934]

I love Rourke brill actor, still love him in 9 1/2 weeks. down to earth guy.

[@djf2918]

Always been a giant fan of Mickey Rourke. Hope he gets more serious acting roles..

[@SSHARLIE101]

I HAVE TO SAY THIS he is a smart and brave man, plus he's got a heart of gold, and i say he look's allot better with short hair, and you can see him more better, WOW he looks amazing in short hair, LUV YOU MICKY ROURKE, he's clean cutt no matter what he does in his movie's, MWA❤Lⓞⓥⓔ❤

[@whitrulzes]

There's more to life than looks. He's a very good actor when he does good roles.

[@shizzle7642]

Watching in 2020, great interview!

[@DennisCkl]

Good to see him back! Great redemption.

[@TheMetalhead678]

He was frickin' amazing in The Wrestler, so touching, emotional and very down to earth. Randy The Ram, hell yeah!

[@davidfoster9013]

he's a Legend

[@fmj4138]

Jonathan, you have always been a laugh! Fab interview!

[@negativezero3107]

god i loved him in get carter, i couldnt believe he was gone for so long after great movies earlier, real neat sly brought him back, kinda like quinton brought back travolta. i mean angel heart and bar fly!!!! god bless sly, love mickey

[@kevinoconnor4102]

Stallone knew that Mickey was in a bad way financially as few would employ him so he got him in the remake of Get Carter which realistically wasnt that great. 10 years later he repaid that favour by playing a role in the Expendables and why he wasnt part in the sequels. Mickey is very loyal to his friends as Penn, Stallone Sheen and others have said.

[@dullesperez506]

That's how you interview.never disrespect the guess.

[@tesco-cs]

Yes, Johnathan was answering back quickly when Mickey was getting a bit choked out, he was trying to make him feel at ease.

[@erikgislason7733]

Mickey’s so great ‼️

[@WentMillerGal15]

I still think Mickey is handsome. His personality shines and he's true to himself in Hollywood which is mostly populated with fakes. He isn't afraid or embarrassed to open up about his rough up bringing. He is a stand up guy and is such a sweet and genuine man. Never judge a book by it's cover, especially Mickey Rourke.

[@cbk69]

To me, Mickey Rourke totally redefines cool. Huge fan and willing bed partner right here!:P

[@boilkaraneychev5433]

His tattoo should be : *When youre going through Hell, just keep going* ... this man has been there + has shaken hands with the _Devil_ himself. Keep SHINNING + keep GOING Mickey!
